Daddy is mad

2019-07-11 06:58:45 UTC [Athens #gymnasium_games]  

Holy shit.
Iโ€™m gonna have to start allllll over again.
Ok, folks, thereโ€™s this great game called JA2...

Daddy is still mad

โ€œWe, humans, use electromagnetic waves to communicate on earth.โ€
*Observes electromagnetic waves in space*
โ€œThat must be space men communicating in space!โ€

Possibility 1) We are observing electromagnetic waves, sent out by alien civilizations eons ago, and we *just happen* to be capable of observing them *precisely* in the window that they actually use electromagnetic waves for communication.

Possibility 2) Itโ€™s a naturally occurring phenomena that is continually occurring.

Iโ€™m going with 2), folks.

@Laucivol Because we are yet to explain the origins of said waves.

โ€œOmg aliens!โ€ Is clickbait.

@ebinmemes22 Arguable. I tend to put more stock in the โ€œInevitable collapse resulting from the attempt to manage an empire spanning three continents.โ€

If life, or even intelligent life, evolved on a planet in a distant star system, we would have absolutely no way of predicting what form it would take.
We donโ€™t know what natural environment it evolved out of, we donโ€™t know what predators/prey it evolved alongside. We donโ€™t even know if the predator/prey dynamic would even apply.
We donโ€™t even know if that other planet evolved life based on carbon or if it was some other element.

I seriously doubt that alien life would appear *anything* like us.

We arenโ€™t going to meet sexy blue humanoid ladies. Sorry folks.

@Laucivol Not gonna happen, bruh.

I can absolutely say โ€œWe are not going to discover a race of sexually compatible, attractive blue alien women who are waiting for strong earth men to teach them our strange customs of M-F-F group sex.โ€

The definitions of โ€œplant and animalโ€ would, most likely, not even apply in life evolved on another world.

Those are earth concepts.

Seriously

Would they? How could you know that?

Or, it might be on a planet where the first life gets its energy some other way.

โ€œIt happened that way here, so it must have happened like that there.โ€ Is extremely short sighted.
Where from? We canโ€™t know. Thatโ€™s the point.

If it ainโ€™t modded... meh.

5G fear is more related to Chinese interference than doomsayer tech-fear

China is making all the 5g hardware, so folks fear that China is putting back doors in it.

Weโ€™ve had American tech leaders over here in Australia basically begging us not to purchase Chinese hardware for our 5g rollout.
...and weโ€™re like โ€œBruh, itโ€™s *cheaper*.โ€

Itโ€™s not that big a deal.

Makes sense so far

It depends on what youโ€™re specifically saying.

If you are say โ€œLadies and gentlemen, there is a *negro* outside, stealing your *bicycles! Thatโ€™s the fellow, over yonder! His name is Tyrone! Tyrone, weโ€™re coming for you, Tyrone! Quickly, ladies and gentlemen, accost that *negro*, Tyrone and weโ€™ll have a good old fashioned lynching!โ€
Obvious incitement. Been illegal for hundreds of years. Not protected speech. At all.

If, on the other hand, you were to say โ€œLadies and Gentlemen, if you look at these statistics, youโ€™ll clearly see that, as the *negro* population in a community rises, a proportionate rise in bicycle theft is observable.โ€
Thatโ€™s not incitement. Itโ€™s... kinda douche, and depending on the motivation of the speaker, probably racist, but itโ€™s not incitement.

The former has been, and rightly so, illegal forever.
The problem is that the *latter* is more and more being seen as synonymous with the former.

*Winks at the camera*
Like AliG says, keep it real.

*Waves hands in a very Jewish fashion*
And how about daylight savings time? Whatโ€™s up with thaaaaat?

The Jews are fine.
As are the blacks.
Race not important.
Only ideology important.

Cheers folks, gotta get back to work.

GINGER PRIDE!

THE ONLY ANSWER TO 1984,

Muslim women are, at the end of the day, still *women* and, from an evolutionary point of view, women tend to favor conformity in the social group.

So yes, theyโ€™ll push the hijab.

That said, some cultures are better than others, and any culture that forces its women to wear a fkn potato sack on their head is worse than one that does not.

I disagree. Take an Arab at birth, raise it in Wisconsin, with good olโ€™ โ€˜merican parents. It will develop good olโ€™ โ€˜merican values. It will be a part of good old Wisconsinite culture.

Oh definitely. Canโ€™t teach an old Arab new tricks.

Generally speaking, Iโ€™d discourage them of the female persuasion from taking relationship advice from blokes on this server... yeaaahh... naahhhh

@Eccles *Squints*

*Smirks*

People murder people. Itโ€™s the one constant in history.
The discord chick getting murdered is news because itโ€™s novel. Itโ€™s not common (comparatively), or special. Concern over *this girl specifically* is performative.

More people use discord every day. One of them got murdered.
*Shrug*
Itโ€™s a tragedy, sure. But no more or less than the girl who doesnโ€™t use discord.

2019-07-16 00:09:22 UTC [Athens #gymnasium_games]  

Zerg are not copies of tyranids.
Protoss are not copies of eldar.

There are aesthetic similarities, sure.
And similarities in abilities, Zerg/tyranid hive mind, Protoss/Eldar psychic abilities. Sure.

But thatโ€™s about it. โ€œInspired byโ€ sure. โ€œCopies ofโ€. Not at all.

And โ€œGW Marines are SC marinesโ€ no. Other than the name and a general appraisal of โ€œOh sure, theyโ€™re both buff guys in armorโ€. No. Theyโ€™re completely different. In origin, ideology, ability. Hell, even in a simple cost/power comparison, they are *complete opposites*.

2019-07-16 00:11:18 UTC [Athens #gymnasium_games]  

@Goodwood of Dankโ„ข Exactly.

Itโ€™s obvious that the blizzard guys responsible for SC lore played some 40k, thereโ€™s inspiration there, but to imply that they simply copy pasted one universe to another and changed the names is absolutely wrong.

2019-07-16 00:20:41 UTC [Athens #gymnasium_games]  

โ€œAt one time we wanted to make a warhammer gameโ€

Thatโ€™s it.

Thatโ€™s your, And this articles, โ€œproofโ€ that itโ€™s a copy.

Weaksauce dude.

They wanted to make a warhammer game. They couldnโ€™t. So they made a *different* fantasy game. That draws on the same Tolkienesque source material as every other fantasy setting.

2019-07-16 00:21:57 UTC [Athens #gymnasium_games]  

GW doesnโ€™t own the rights to โ€œMen in armor and green orcsโ€ or โ€œElves that shoot arrows and evil undeadโ€.
Shits been everywhere for ages.

Shapiro tells the truth.

Milo, PB and Sargon arenโ€™t alt lite.

Alt lite doesnโ€™t exist.

โ€œAlt liteโ€ a term used to describe people we donโ€™t like for whom โ€œalt rightโ€ is far too preposterous.

@Arthur Grayborn these communes you describe... arenโ€™t communist. They are cooperatives existing within a capitalist country. They work because they can still engage in the capitalism that exists around them.

@ฯบ14แ›Ÿ But what does that scale represent? The positions you describe are completely different ideologies. Itโ€™s not a sliding scale of โ€œless conservativeโ€ to โ€œmore conservativeโ€.
The only possible rational behind that scale could be โ€œThe SJW types hate one end a little bit more than the other end.โ€

The state is different to a corporation. The state should represent an ideology. A core set of values. It should give its citizens part of their identity. It is not merely a business with special privileges and responsibilities.

The reason to avoid socialism, and communism, is that planned economies, donโ€™t, canโ€™t, have never, will never work. You cannot replace a bottom up free market with top down control. No individual, nor any group of elites, can ever replace the hive mind of *millions* of citizens working in their own self interest.

Itโ€™s not โ€œlikelyโ€. Itโ€™s inevitable.

Our current level of affluence, of food surplus, of... everything.... Exists because of free markets.
If you go to socialism quickly. You will quickly end up starving millions.
If you go towards socialism gradually, slowly, and carefully... you will gradually, slowly, and carefully... end up starving millions.
You cannot erode that which gave us our wealth, without also eroding our wealth.

โ€œUniquely talented leadersโ€
These people do not exist.
These people can not exist.
You are asking a man to be a god and rule you.

There is no education system that can educate a man in a way that he could sufficiently replace the free market.
Again. Youโ€™re asking for an omniscient leader. Itโ€™s impossible.

Hey, Iโ€™d like better leaders, in general, too.
Not because it would enable a socialist society, merely because better leaders, with our current society would be better.

The idea that socialism is โ€œstrongerโ€ is flawed. Socialism isnโ€™t stronger. Itโ€™s more *controllable*. Sure. You can gear an entire economy to one, authoritatively commanded purpose.
But that economy can never be as strong as a capitalist economy.

@Arthur Grayborn โ€œIn practice, capitalism continually outperforms socialism because socialist leaders are almost always corrupt and inefficient. They're often idiots too, and idiocy tends to kill more people than even the worst kinds of malice.โ€

This is wrong. Socialism fails because socialism *itself* is a flawed idea. No leader, no group of leaders, no matter how morally perfect they are, can *ever* replace the free market.

There are no weaknesses in the free market.

โ€œThatโ€™s not a bug, thatโ€™s a featureโ€

The system we have is terrible.
...unless youโ€™re comparing it to every other system ever tried in the history of mankind.

Then itโ€™s pretty awesome.๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

@spooky ducc @ฯบ14แ›Ÿ is an ethno nationalist

Oh you two, get a room.

๐Ÿ˜‰

Again, for the millionth time, socialism doesnโ€™t work in theory, or in practice.

Ok. I have a new system.
Itโ€™s called uni-kitty-cashism.
Instead of capitalism, or socialism, what we do is have an entire economy based around unicorn farts and kitten giggles.
We have a grand unicorn, with all the power of love and harmony, manage the economy in all its complexity. It will be perfect because unicorns are completely unbiased and good.
But we also need a form of currency, so what we do is, we take the unicorns farts, and make small kittens sniff them. This will, obviously, make the kittens giggle.
Now, these kitten giggles will be distributed fairly and with great social justice by the grand unicorn. We then use these kitten giggles to trade for what we need.
Itโ€™s perfect because the harder the unicorn works, the more it farts, and the more kitten giggles there are for everyone. So inflation is kept in check naturally.

In *theory* this will work.

*Grins like a self satisfied jackarse*

If none of this works, if it ends in starvation and genocide, well thatโ€™s just because we didnโ€™t implement uni-kitty-cashism correctly, and should try again.
Maybe in venuzuela.

You guys

Yโ€™all should play JA2 1.13

This fool donโ€™t know the Bible.
Doesnโ€™t know JA2 1.13 either.
Heh. *BAKA*!

Weโ€™re in the spiral. There is no point worrying about who to vote for.
The pendulum is swinging hard enough that itโ€™s already damaging the machine. Just keep your head down and donโ€™t get dead.
